I was looking at the brackets from last year and it looks like the very exact pairing formula used for the 2011 tournament this year. Look at 189 where you have Clay Center vs. Osawatomie on the same side of the bracket as champions from their regionals for a good example. There should only be 3 types of draws: AvB CvD, AvC BvD, and AvD BvC Combos.

Would throwing out whatever combo is drawn out for a year, help to keep it balanced overall? Example: 2nd option is drawn, 2nd option can not be drawn for the next year's brackets.
